Lakers report: Getting inside

Although the likelihood of the Lakers facing the San Antonio Spurs in the playoffs' first round is lessening, the teams will play for the final time this season Thursday night at Staples Center. The Lakers got a big confidence-builder for their season with a March 10 victory at AT&T Center, 100-92.

Kobe Bryant scored 29 points in that game, despite the strong defense of San Antonio's Bruce Bowen. But it was the Lakers' defense that ruled the game, holding San Antonio to 13 second-quarter points.

Interestingly, San Antonio's Tim Duncan hasn't led his team in scoring in any of the three meetings between the Lakers and Spurs this season. The Lakers last beat the Spurs at Staples Center in a regular-season game on Nov. 28, 2003.

REPLAY
The Lakers beat the New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets, 105-94, on Sunday night at Staples Center. The victory dropped the Hornets four games back of the Lakers and gave the Lakers' playoff hopes a significant boost.

Lakers center Kwame Brown gave the Lakers a fourth consecutive productive game, and that went a long way to giving the Lakers their fourth consecutive victory. Brown had 17 points on 7-of-7 shooting, plus six rebounds, in 38 minutes.

Brown was playing despite a strained left hamstring and got his nose bloodied twice on drives to the hoop. Kobe Bryant led the Lakers with 30 points on 10-of-19 shooting.

Kobe Bryant was already the best player in the NBA. He is one of the best offensive/defensive threats in the NBA. He takes over a game in the 4th quarter with a killer instinct. He is one of the best clutch players in the NBA. But after winning his 4th NBA title Kobe Bryant still thought there was something missing from his game. H ...(more)

(POLL) Was cruising around and found this very interesting article about LeBron James possibly coming to LA next season when I was first reading it I was like how and was really skeptical. However at the end he does explain how you do it. Basically a sign and trade with Bynum Odom or Artest and others. Not even sure if that would get it ...(more)

In the early going it appears as though the Lakers and the Celtics have the best teams in the West and East respectively.  The Lakers have been putting away close games thanks to Kobe but should be pounding these teams.  This team is reminding me of the Lakers of 2-3 years ...(more)

A lot of people think this trade shouldn't happen, and also have commented that I'd essentially be on suicide watch. Not the case at all. I would actually love to see this trade happen. And Here's why I think the trade makes so much sense.
1) Kobe needs his own version of a Scottie Pippen. A second-bananna. Lebron would fit that role perfectly.2) Lebronze knows he can never win a ring without

The King is dead, long live the 17-time World Champs. Really, the outcome isn't a surprise to any Celtics' fan. As expected, the bench provided a major contribution, adding 26 points to the bludgeoning of the Cavs on their home court. Rasheed put on a shooting clinic with Ilgauskus trying to guard him on the high pick-and-roll. The best fin ...(more)

62 points from the bench tonight. That's no misprint. 62 is correct. Rasheed led Gang Green with 20 points, 5 rebounds and 6 3-pointers. Eddie House added 12, and Shelden Williams added 11 points and 7 rebounds. Who would have ever thought on a night when KG sc ...(more)

BOSTON (AP) -Jason Richardson bounced back from his worst game of the season to score 34 points with 10 rebounds, and the Phoenix Suns rebounded from their only defeat to beat the Boston Celtics 110-103 on Friday night.

Both Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum are doubtful for the game vs. Memphis.They will clobber us off the board.I just hope Lamar will step up together with the Bench Mob.It's about time.Those 40+ minutes will take its toll on our starters sooner than later.
